Eagles-Dolphins Trade Could Be Off Because Of Byron Maxwell's Shoulder
The NFL’s two-day “legal tampering period,” on top of having a silly name, is a silly idea. It’s designed for teams to talk to agents before free agency officially opens, but they’re not supposed to agree to deals, not even in principle. They always do, of course—that’s why those deals are officiall...
Boston College Senior Has Just The Saddest Favorite College Basketball Memory
Boston College ended their basketball season by getting routed 88-66 by Florida State in the first round of the ACC tournament. The Eagles went just 7-25 this year, including an unfathomable 0-19 in conference play, the first team to go winless in the ACC since the post-Len Bias Maryland Terrapins....
Radio Announcer Ejected From College Basketball Game For Vigorous Gesturing
On Monday the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay knocked off Valparaiso 99-92 in overtime to advance to the final of the Horizon League tournament.

Olympian Nick Willis Talks About Beating Porn
“I am 2.5 years porn free (and it feels AMAZING).” New Zealand Olympic silver medalist Nick Willis dropped this bomb on Facebook last week, adding, “Since I was a teenager, it had been a rollercoaster ride of shame and justification as I was on and off with this addiction.

How Much Should You Spend On Rent?
The first of the month is always a hit on your bank account. You know it’s coming, but that never makes it hurt any less. For most renters, that monthly check to the landlord is the largest expenditure you’ll make each month. But exactly how much of your hard-earned cash should you spend on rent?...
Ricardo Lockette Explains How He Could Have Died After Blindside Hit
Seahawks receiver Ricardo Lockette said that he was close to death when Cowboys safety Jeff Heath knocked him out with a blindside hit last November.

Eagles' Trades Show Who's Really Running The Team
It was a year ago, in the span of one crazy week, when the Eagles signed DeMarco Murray and Byron Maxwell and traded for Kiko Alonso. They were the crown jewels of Chip Kelly’s first offseason after winning a power struggle for control of Philadelphia’s personnel decisions. Now, in the span of a day...

Players Resist Urge To Knock Out Referee After Getting Screwed Out Of A Goal
This is just unreal. Right after Accrington Stanley’s (yes, that’s actually the name of the team) striker Billy Kee had fired in what should’ve been the opening goal against AFC Wimbledon, the referee for some reason decided to blow the halftime whistle, nullifying the goal. The game ended 0-0....
Man Who Tries To Grab Home Run Ball From Kids Gets What He Deserves

Brock Osweiler Gets Into Physical Altercation While Holding Pizza
TMZ has gotten its hands on a video that they say was taken outside of a pizza joint in Scottsdale, Ariz., early Saturday morning. In the clip, you can see Broncos quarterback Brock Osweiler push a woman and then receive a violent shove in the back from the woman’s acquaintance....
Peyton Manning Quotes <i>Forrest Gump</i> To Question About UT Allegations

DeAngelo Williams Has Petty And Righteous Thoughts About Peyton Manning
Today is the day when everyone is supposed to shower Peyton Manning with praise. That’s all fine and good, but I’m personally glad that DeAngelo Williams is here to balance things out with some raw pettiness (especially since much of it comes at the expense of Pete Prisco, wearer of weird shorts)....
Police: Ronaldo Vs. Messi Debate Ends With One Guy Killing His Buddy With Shard Of Glass
The incessant arguing about whether Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi is the better player is dumb, misses the point, and is played out. Even worse than getting drawn into said argument in the first place is taking it so seriously that you kill a friend of yours, which is apparently what happened to...
Police: Tre Mason Refused To Cooperate, Was Tasered During Arrest
Rams running back Tre Mason was arrested in Hollywood on charges of resisting arrest, marijuana possession, and reckless driving on Saturday. According to the arresting officer’s narrative of events, Mason was pulled over for driving 75 mph in a 35 mph zone, and was then tasered after refusing to ex...
Report: The Broncos Could Lose Brock Osweiler To The Texans
The conventional wisdom on developing a quarterback is that it’s best to stash the guy for a while, sit him for a few years behind a veteran and then hand over the keys when he’s more physically, mentally, and emotionally prepared. The Broncos looked like they played it to perfection, drafting Brock...
